UNITED STATS MORITZ BAGHARACH, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.

IMPROVEMENT IN GARBAGE-BOXES.

Specification forming part of Letters Patent No. 132,*2SS, dated November 5, 1872.

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, MORITZ BACHARAGH,

of the city, county, and State of New York,

have invented a new and Improved Garbagey Box, of which the following is a speciication:

The drawingrepresen ts a sectional elevation of my improved garbage-box.

This invention relates to a new garbage-box, which is to be placed upon the sidewalks near the gutters of streets in cities and towns, and within which, to some extent, the moisture contained in the oft'a-l will be separated from the solid matter and ejected into the gutters. The invention consists in making the garbage-box with an opening in the top and with a perforated false bottom, and in arranging on its side a door aboveF the false bottom and au opening beneath the same, all as hereinafter more fully described.

"A, in the drawing, represents a garbagebox, made of sheet metal or other material of suiti able size and shape. It is intended to be erected on a sidewalk, B, near the gutter C. The box is open at or near the top to receive the garbage and otfal. It is provided with a perforated false bottom, a, above its real bottom b, and with an opening, d, in the side above the false bottom, and with another opening, e,

lbeneath the same, as shown. The water and other liquid matter contained in the garbage will trickle through the apertures of the false bottom into the lo'wer chamber f, and thence., iiow through the opening e into the gutter, y

offensive vapors and consequent injurious re` sults will be prevented, at least to a very con-r sid erable extent.

Having thus described my invention, I claim as new, and desire to secure by Letters Patent- The garbagebox, provided with the perforated `false bottom a, and with the openings d and e, substantially as herein shown and described.

MORITZ BACHARACII.
